  • I think the Poland reference was insinuating that the US might invade Canada.

  • Speaking of which: happy cake day!

  • I prefer the one with Elon's face:

  • when trump stole his 1st term

    proven in court by the way

    I'm not familiar with that. Can you cite a source, please?

  • "Tesla has been parking the EVs at a shopping center earmarked for major redevelopment."

    They're in the way of the redevelopment.

  • Not OP but "Collision Course: Ronald Reagan, the Air Traffic Controllers, and the Strike That Changed America" by Joseph A. McCartin. This book provides an in-depth analysis of the events surrounding the strike, including the role of military personnel in air traffic control during the crisis.

  • If you pull down and tap the little pencil to edit, then go to panel settings, you will find the option to change the pulldown menus from separate back to together.

  • According to chatgpt:

    Yes, in addition to eye strain and sleep disruption from blue light, there are several other significant downsides to extended screen time—even when the activity is productive, like reading or learning:

    1. Physical Health Effects

    Neck and back pain: Poor posture during screen use (like slouching or craning your neck) can lead to musculoskeletal issues, especially "tech neck."

    Repetitive strain injuries (RSI): Extended typing or mouse use can contribute to carpal tunnel syndrome or tendonitis.

    1. Mental Fatigue & Decreased Focus

    Cognitive overload: Constant digital input and task-switching (e.g. checking tabs, alerts) can reduce focus and increase mental fatigue.

    Reduced comprehension: Studies show that reading on screens may impair deep reading and comprehension compared to reading on paper.

    1. Dry Eyes / Reduced Blink Rate

    People blink less frequently when staring at screens, leading to dry, irritated eyes.

    1. Headaches and Migraine Triggers

    Prolonged exposure, especially in flickering or poorly lit environments, can lead to headaches or trigger migraines in sensitive individuals.

    1. Reduced Physical Activity

    Long sedentary periods contribute to health risks like obesity, cardiovascular disease, and even reduced life expectancy.

    1. Mood and Mental Health Impacts

    Excessive screen time is correlated with increased rates of anxiety, depression, and reduced sleep quality—even when content is educational.
